Donbass Arena

Reviewed By PaulVance - Montreal, Canada

The best stadium I visited during Euro 2012, with an atmosphere bettered only by Warsaw's National Stadium on the night Poland played Russia.
The Stadium sits in the Donbass valley, and is part of a large parkland area which also includes the impressive war memorial and the Planetarium, i think.
I was there during the Euros in June 2012.

Park of Forged Figures

Reviewed By Igor_1955 - Donetsk, Ukraine

Unique out-of-doors park, with the wonderful forged figures. Every forged sculpture surprisingly passes appearances of fairy-tale heroes that actually very difficult to express in a metal. On my opinion, it succeeded all of authors simply of genius! New sculptures appears every year. This year appeared the sculpture from Georgian diaspora. Shocking place! Arrive and look!

Pushkin Boulevard

Reviewed By D_and_G_2008 - Hong Kong, China

It is a beautiful park parallel to the main Artema St. After we done with the main attractions in Artema St. such as the Transfiguration Church, we walked to the Pushkin Boulevard. We walked a long the Boulevard and all the way to Park Shcherbakova. There are many nice restaurants serving all kinds of cuisine along the Pushkin Boulevard. You can have an outdoor seat and enjoy a local beer there.

Park Shcherbakova

Reviewed By Bohdan_12 - Donetsk, Ukraine

One of the most important things in this park is entertainment. Rides for children and parents, recently-built water park and Dolphinarium for having fun are the places of interest for the whole Donetsk. If there is The Great Event (e.g. carnival or the performance of folk groups) it is certainly held here. A great pro of it is that you can walk from the beginning of Pushkin boulevard, then walk along the bridge over 1st City Lake and you are already here! 3 large Fountains will help you go through hot summer weather. But here's one con: the lake isn't good place for swimming;(

Mertsalov’s Palm

Reviewed By Igor_1955 - Donetsk, Ukraine

The monument is a copy of the famous steel palm, forged in 1895 by the Uzovka (ex Donetsk) blacksmith Alexey Mertsalov. The original is kept in the museum of the Mining Institute in Saint Petersburg. In 1900 the palm of Mercalov was exhibited at the World Industrial Exhibition in Paris, in the pavilion of the Novorossiysk Society of Coal, Iron and Rails Production, where A. Mertsalov worked. The pavilion won the Grand Prix award. The author of this monument succeeded in creating a unique image of Donbass that best of all is expressed by the slogan The capability has been proved by the deeds. It is a real image of the labour region, with difficult and often tragic history, that with its own hands forged and forges its fate at all times. One who did not see this monument and does not perceive it as a symbol of history, prosperity and karma of Donbass will never understand its soul

Guess you don't want to travel all the way to Ukraine to see the Beatles Monument. Afterall, it is just a small decoration in the Liverpool hotel.
